Review:This set has a medium dark, rich and full sound with a wide dynamic range for hats. They are very responsive and have a great fat and heavy "chicking" sound. These are perfect for articulate and precise songs; however, when opened up they can really roar.

Review: "The Crunch hats are available as 14" or 15" types.
The medium thin top and medium heavy bottom of the pair conspire to produce a gorgeous funky, slightly soft and dark response which isn't as voluminous as you might expect when played closed. As soon as you reduce pressure on the hi-hat stand footplate, however, there's a real leap - these babies get loud very suddenly. The cool tonal characteristics remain, however, and the half-open roar of the Crunch hats is very enticing indeed."
